Japan, an island country in East Asia, is an archipelago of over 6,800 islands stretching along the Pacific coast. The four largest islands, Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu, account for the majority of the country's landmass. Japan's terrain is predominantly mountainous, with the Japanese Alps forming the backbone of the main island, Honshu. Mount Fuji, the country's highest peak and a prominent symbol, is a volcanic mountain. The coastline is extensive and varied, with numerous bays, inlets, and peninsulas. Japan's location along the Pacific Ring of Fire makes it prone to earthquakes and volcanic activity. The country experiences a range of climates, from subtropical in the south to continental in the north.
